Chapter 256 -256 Are You Satisfied?

“Or is it that you actually do have feelings, but you just don’t have the guts because I’m here?”

Hope Williams tugged on Waylon Lewis’s ear, her demeanor unreasonably questioning, but her tone not quite accusatory, instead it carried a hint of playfulness and charm.

Letting the woman do as she pleased, Waylon Lewis did not get angry but laughed instead, “Do you really want me to say it?”

Hope’s retort caused Hope to pause, and after a moment, her little face turned furious. It couldn’t be that he really had desires but no courage?

“Say it.”

Waylon smiled, lowered her body close to his, and whispered close to her cheek with a deep and husky voice that slowly spilled out.

“I only have feelings for you, I only want you.”

“…”

Hope was taken aback, and then a flush of red spread across her face.

“Are you satisfied with that?” Seeing her reaction, Waylon curled his lips.

Hope stiffened, her gaze shyly darting away.

She had meant to tease Waylon, but she hadn’t expected to be counter-flirted by him.

“Hmm?”

Waylon’s dark, deep eyes looked at her, filled with tenderness and love.

Hope bit her lip, and under the man’s intense gaze, she slowly spoke, “… Satisfied.”

“What? I didn’t hear clearly.”

“I said! Satisfied!”

Waylon let out a low chuckle from his throat, smooth and rich to the ear, like the sound of a cello.

Hope was embarrassed by his teasing laughter, realizing she was not getting the upper hand, and quickly backed out, “I’m not playing with you anymore, I’m sleepy, going to bed.”

She hurriedly got off Waylon, but she was pulled back by the man with a tug, pressed against him, “You want to run after just teasing?”

“I really… I’m sleepy!”

“You were just energetic.”

“No, no, no, not energetic anymore.” Hope quickly nodded like she was beating a drum.

Seeing her cute and flustered look, Waylon couldn’t hide the smile on his face, obviously, he had no intention of letting her go, “Then let’s do what was left undone during the day to refresh yourself, shake off the drowsiness.”

Hope smiled helplessly, holding her forehead, “Why are you so obsessed with this?”

“Do you give in?”

“You really want it?”

“Isn’t it obvious?”

Hope curved her lips, leaned down, and planted a kiss on Waylon’s lips.

With the silent consent, the already bold Waylon became even more unrestrained.

He turned the tables, gripping Hope’s hand and fiercely kissing her lips. He did not press her down as he had before, but allowed her to sit atop him.

Waylon held her hand, the other hand stroking her beautiful long hair, “Today, you can be the queen on top.”

Hope looked at him with flushed cheeks, “… I don’t know how.”

…

“Waylon… Waylon…”

A satisfying confrontation came to an end.

Hope leaned in Waylon’s arms, letting the still energetic man take her into the bathroom to clean up before bringing her back to bed.

Hope lazily rested her head and didn’t want to move, waylon brought her in close, and as she stayed amidst the familiar scent, drowsiness swept over her.

“Waylon~”

“Hmm?”

Waylon bent his head and lightly kissed her on the lips.

“I feel like every time, you’re going to play me to death.”

Looking at Hope, who was clearly tired and sleepy, her voice soft and light yet trying to get her complaint across, a touch of distress crossed Waylon’s eyes, “I’ll be more careful next time.”

Hope couldn’t be bothered to argue with him. This kind of thing, this big oaf would say this now and forget about it the moment he turned around.

She quickly fell into a heavy sleep.

…

Hope Williams was woken up early in the morning by the ringing of her phone, she fished out her hand from the covers and searched for it on the bed, skillfully swiping to answer the call.

“Hello?” she uttered lazily, her voice heavy with sleep.

The other party was silent for two seconds before finally realizing, “President… Mrs.?”

“Mm,” Hope responded languidly.

“Good morning, Mrs. Is the president there?”

Hope lifted her hand to feel the spot next to her, “He’s not…”

She moved her lips to continue speaking, but suddenly sat up sharply, noticing the unfamiliar caller ID, and realized this might be Waylon Lewis’s phone.

Hope smacked her forehead, chiding herself for her grogginess. It could be something urgent from the company. She propped herself up and managed to get out of bed, “Wait a second.”

As soon as Hope got off the bed, she saw Waylon emerge from the bathroom. She handed him the phone, “Your call.”

“Did I wake you? Go back to sleep for a bit,” Waylon suggested as he took the phone, drew her close, and tenderly kissed her forehead.

“No need, answer your call. I’ll go see if Luke and Willow are awake.”

“Okay.”

Waylon took the call to the study, probably for some emergency. After Hope washed up and changed her clothes, she went downstairs but didn’t see Luke and Willow, instead finding Alitzel Williams bustling about in the living room.

Hope approached and sat next to her, “Mom.”

“Little Hope, perfect timing. Are you working today since it’s Saturday?”

“I’m not working, what’s up?”

Alitzel seemed to have found a companion and started chatting, “That’s great! I was just thinking about who to take to tonight’s banquet with me. It’d be so boring to go alone, so you accompany mom, okay? I can’t always keep my beautiful daughter-in-law hidden at home; I need to show you off a bit.”

Hope arched her delicate eyebrows, “What banquet?”

“Just a gathering where the socialites and ladies of prestige come together to chat and have tea. Don’t be nervous, but as my daughter-in-law, you naturally have to dress up dazzlingly, make a stunning entrance. Come, let’s go choose an evening gown later.”

Hope smiled slightly, not rejecting Alitzel’s proposition.

“By the way, when can the old master be discharged from the hospital?” Alitzel suddenly remembered to ask.

“Pretty soon, grandpa has been recovering quite well lately. He can be discharged after a few more tests show no issues.”

Alitzel was relieved and smiled, “That’s wonderful, though next month will be busy.”

“What’s happening?”

“The old master’s seventieth birthday and the marriage ceremony between you and Waylon, both are big events for the Lewis Family, needing careful planning.”

Hope clicked her tongue lightly; she had almost forgotten about the old master’s seventieth birthday.

“Let’s handle grandpa’s birthday banquet first,” Hope suggested.

“That’s what I was thinking. The wedding has many more elaborate ceremonies and lots of things have yet to be selected and prepared. The old master’s birthday is at the beginning of the month, and he will likely be discharged by then, perfect timing for a celebratory family gathering.

Now, with grandpa recovering and your wedding approaching, our Lewis Family really is welcoming double happiness.”

“Mm.” Hope nodded, in sync with Alitzel’s thoughts.

In the midst of their chat, Waylon had changed into a suit and came downstairs. He walked towards Hope, looking at her tenderly, “There’s an urgent matter, I need to go on a business trip soon. Since you’re not working today, rest well at home.”

Hope blinked, “A business trip? Is it an emergency? Where to, and how many days will it take?”

Waylon quite liked the small woman’s concerned demeanor, his eyes filled with a tender smile, “Yes, probably about a week. I’ll come back as soon as possible.”

Hope lowered her gaze and nodded slightly, feeling a bit reluctant.

Waylon, clearly perceiving her subtle mood, embraced her waist and affectionately nuzzled her forehead, “Be good, wait for me.”

Hope lifted her eyes, obediently nodding, “Yeah, just drive safely.”

“Will do,” Waylon assured her with a gentle smile, leaning in to place a kiss on her forehead.

The couple exchanged simple farewells but ended up being affectionately silly for ten minutes, until Alitzel couldn’t stand watching anymore. She curled up her lips, sipping her rose tea without making a sound, internally marveling.

She had never imagined that her usual decisive and quick-tempered self would have such a clingy day.

Unable to resist, she spoke up, “You two are done being lovey-dovey, right? Take your wife with you on the business trip then.”

Waylon actually entertained the idea; this woman was like poison – he didn’t want to be apart from her for even half a moment.

Hope blushed and gave Waylon a light shove, “Alright, you better go, take care.”

Waylon ruffled Hope’s hair affectionately and turned to leave.

He was afraid if he stayed any longer, he’d truly lose control and pack her up to take with him.

In the morning, Hope and Alitzel took Luke and Willow for a visit to the old master. In the idle afternoon, they went shopping – of course, Luke and Willow were a must to accompany.

Hope had always thought she was quite adept at picking out stylish outfits for the kids, but to her surprise, Alitzel was even more extravagant.
